Birth Doula

Becoming a mother is the most magical and transcendental process in a woman's life.

“Asking your husband to be your sole guide through labor is like asking him to lead the way on a climb of Mount Everest. He may be smart and trustworthy, you may love him, but in the Himalayas, you’d both be a lot better off with a Sherpa!”

– Pam England

The births of my two children have made me grow like I never imagined. The strength that I felt when they reached my arms is the same that drives me in my passion to accompany women in such an important phase of their lives .

As a Doula , I accompany you before, during and after childbirth to provide you with the space and tools you need to connect with the source of your ancestral wisdom and thus prepare yourself for pregnancy, birth and motherhood with awareness, love and joy.

I listen without judging your wishes and the unique needs of your family, to offer you authentic and personalized support.

  • I can help integrate and strengthen your partner's role in the support and birth process.

  • I help you find the perfect place for the birth you want, public hospital, private hospital or at home (Mallorca) with different professional teams

  • I help you  change beliefs and fears about childbirth through DreamBirth® visualization techniques.

  • I advise you with the “birth plan” and its various options, and I help you find “Your” tools and resources for childbirth

  • Together we can prepare everything essential for the arrival of your baby , including food reserves and recipes that will nourish you as a newborn mother.

  • Some couples reach out to me when they start to dream of having a baby, others shortly before the arrival of their baby. The sooner we work together, the longer you can benefit from my support and expertise throughout your pregnancy (included in the price).

  • No, I do not replace anyone. I am an added member of the birth team and support everyone throughout the process. I can actually help the father or partner to be more present and engaged in providing support to the mothers throughout pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum.

  • With years of experience and collaboration with various health professionals, including empathetic and respectful gyneocologists, independent midwives facilitating home births, and low-intervention hospitals on Mallorca, I have a deep understanding of the birthing scene. I am well-equipped to provide personalized advice on the best place that aligns with your unique needs.

  • A midwife is medically trained, may offer gynecological examinations, birth control counselling, prescriptions, and labor , delivery and postpartum care.

    A doula provides emotinal, physical, practical and spiritual support to the parents before, during, and after childbirth, but does not deliver the baby.

    In simple terms, a doula is like the gentle guidance, a hug, a supportive shoulder, and a safe space for rest and unfolding—akin to the nurturing role traditionally offered by women in village communities during the birthing process and beyond.

  • As a professional doula, I wholeheartedly support all types of birth - whether its home birth, hospital birth, birth with an epidural, cesarean …No matter how you choose or how life has chosen for you, I offer a comprehensive range of support, including emotional, physical, and unbiased informational guidance.

  • There have been many studies on this subject that have found that the presence of a trained doula benefits everyone.

    The studies have shown that doula support can lead to shorter labours, less use of pain medications, and a reduction in C-section rates. Better outcomes for mothers and babies have also been shown through research with doula support.

    The presence of a doula during a hospital birth can be especially valuable as the doula is there to support the entire care team. The support and education that the doula provides to the mother and her support team has been shown to lead to an increase in the mother's overall satisfaction with her birthing experience, regardless of how it unfolds.

Feedback from clients

  • "Jaja is a miracle! With her energy, personality, sense of humor, and perspective... I couldn't have wished for a better doula! We've known each other for years, even before she became a doula, so it didn't surprise me that she became one. The need to help others has always been very strong in her, one is born with that I assume. She is chosen. And giving birth with her... I often recall and treasure that moment. I wish my first two children had the same peaceful, comfortable and calm home birth experience as my third, with Jaja making it most special. I will never stop being grateful to her for the exceptional and unique guidance through the arrival of new life into the world, which, like death, belongs to one of the most powerful moments in life. Jaja, thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

    — Olga Menzelova Kelymanova

  • "An incredibly wise woman with a shamanic essence that will bring you everything from the softest detailed care to the most passionate and powerful support along your journey through pregnancy, birth and aftercare. Jaja has found her calling and she brings her unique magic tool bag to support and uplift all families through their journey. It would not have been the same without her! It takes a very special person to do this work and we could not trust anyone more than Jaja"

    — Jada

  • "The value and appreciation I have for the role Jaja played in both of my pregnancy and birthing experiences is inexpressible. She helped equip my mind and heart with all the tools I needed to have a confident and peaceful journey - to dig deep within myself and find the powerful woman that was a bit buried. She eased any rough or insecure edges I had and humbly and assertively guided me and my husband to achieve our desires in pregnancy and birthing. I cannot imagine what my story would look like with her not in it."

    — Janel Samuel Parker

  • "AMAZING!! I would recommend Jaja to expectant mothers and fathers. I enjoyed the personal relationship we gained as we birthed our first baby without family and in a foreign country... in saying that, I think I would still seek a doula if I was in my home country as it felt like having somebody on 'our side' "

    — Ana Maria Clarke

  • "It is like having a fairy godmother - she comes when needed, provides all the support you didn't even know you wanted, always lets you feel your own strength and capability but is still there to help shift things when they feel impossibly hard. It is the support of a whole tribe of women, condensed into one magical being. They have seen it all, done it all, and help you conquer the fear, which in the end is the only real obstacle ever present."

    — Shanti & Simon Hellerich

  • "In my opinion, the presence of Jaja was fundamental in my childbirth. I had previously had a traumatic first birth, and thanks to your gaze and support, I felt capable of having the childbirth I felt I deserved. You offered me fundamental support, you were a rock by my side, and just with how you looked at me and the complicity we shared, the words of encouragement, and even your tears of love, I remember. The best gift you can give to your family to experience a childbirth where you feel secure, heard, and respected at all times."

    — Carli Caldes

  • "Looking back now, we just got really 'lucky'. We had no idea how intense birth would be and we are just so grateful you were there. Your presence set us up to have a wonderful birth experience overall, mostly just by being there, guiding us through the process and very practically showing us how we could work together through labour, which proved invaluable. It's the most helpful support you can set up for yourself. If you can, just do it :) There are so many unexpected ways a doula can be helpful, that it's just so reassuring to have her by your side. I personally think he would have been a lot less relaxed if you hadn´t been there. It helped Dwight a lot to know how he could help me and how he could be a real part of the birth ;)"

    — Berenice and Dwight and Noa

  • "Again I can’t explain enough how amazing it was, you kept me calm and focused and confident during the whole time. Before you arrived I was feeling quite overwhelmed but as soon as you came to us and smiled at me and I saw your excitement I started to feel again that I knew that everything would be okay and I could think about the fact that I was about to meet my baby rather than just focusing on the physical intensity of the labour. Hiring Jaja has been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life :) "

    — Malin

I wish for every woman to feel respected, confident and empowered when she becomes a mother, and all her family with her. This is why I support informed decisions and each woman’s freedom to make her own choices. If you allow me, I can be your support and guide during this transformative stage of your life and that of your family.
